CARLSBAD: Runner found dead in street

Authorities on Wednesday were trying to determine why an
18-year-old runner collapsed and died in a crosswalk at Tamarack
Avenue and Jefferson Street in Carlsbad late Tuesday afternoon.

The Carlsbad Police Department said it was quickly determined
that the man identified by the coroner's office Wednesday as Ian
Phillips had not been struck by any vehicles but had collapsed for
unknown reasons shortly before 6 p.m.

Efforts to revive him during transport to Tri-City Medical
Center and at the hospital failed.

Later in the evening, a family member contacted police to say
they were looking for the runner.

Results of an autopsy conducted on Wednesday to help determine
the cause of death are pending.
